Assembler Syntax:
TAS <ea>
Attributes: Size = (Byte)
Description: Tests and sets the byte operand addressed by
the effective address field. The instruction tests the
current value of the operand and sets the N and Z condition
bits appropriately. TAS aslo sets the high-order bit of
the operand. The operation uses a locked or read-modify-
write transfer sequence. This instruction supports use of
a flag or semaphore to coordinate several processors.
Condition Codes:
\c32200
X Not affected.
N Set if the most significant bit of the operand is currently
set. Cleared otherwise.
Z Set if the operand was zero. Cleared otherwise.
V Always cleared.
C Always cleared.
